Research has shown that radical prostatectomy (RPE), a gold standard for treating non-metastatic prostate cancer (PCa), frequently results in a spectrum of sexual disorders, including erectile and orgasmic dysfunction, diminished libido, androgen deprivation symptoms, and alterations in penile morphology. A recent study published in Vestnik urologii, a journal of the
Cancer research
Investigators at the Sunnybrook Research Institute in Toronto, Canada, have published a groundbreaking study on prostate cancer, developing a novel primary cell line model of localized prostate cancer and radioresistance. The research aimed to address the mechanisms of therapy resistance and identify potential therapeutic targets for sensitizing radioresistant disease. The
